well with all the stuff going on here (family and otherwise)
i've not been able to get as much time on the bean picture
setup and testing things out until recently.

i finally got a rig set up last week so i can get pictures
taken without me shaking them or them not being quite right.

then to start working on the lighting (which is next):

if you look at that picture closely (or look at the following
picture for even more detail) you might be able to figure out
which of the beans in the picture is 1/2 of parent line. i'm
not sure what the other parent might be.

can you guess?

i had to take some side tracks through a few things to get to
where i am at now, but at least making progress.
